I love College Football as well as the next person but I think the bowl thing is out of control. It used to be right around New Year's we'd have the best teams play in the Cotton Bowl, Rose Bowl, Sugar Bowl and the Orange Bowl. Now we have added so many bowl games that they start on December 19th and finish up on January 8th. Yes, there are now 32 bowl games played. To help pay for the giant affairs, we've commercialized the names. The Outback Bowl, Capital One Bowl, GMAC Bowl, and my new favorite the MPC Computers Bowl. Who?
Here's the frosting on the cake - Minnesota with a 6-7 record (only 3-5 within the Big Ten) gets to go to a Bowl Game. A losing record gets to go to a bowl game! How did that happen? Did someone say, I know these guys must be better than that. Besides they look good in uniform.
The sad part, the Gophers of Minnesota almost won the game. Please no more additions to the already over exposed bowl scene or we'll have a bowl for everyone in America.

Could not have said it better myself. Hand me a spoon, and we'll eat a box of cereal to celebrate! :)
